Please tell me Donnelly can catch up

[brettdale]

Behind 12K. A there lots of dem areas to be counted??

[MontanaMama]

1. Just heard the same thing.

That’s a big race. Fingers crossed for Donnelly.

[grantcart]

2. Half of the state is still voting. Be patient

[hlthe2b]

3. For heavens sakes, there's only 2% reporting thus far.

[Manastash]

4. Small red districts are reporting first

[GitRDun]

5. Vote count includes NO cities....he's fine nt

[DontBooVote]

6. Please be patient, it's early yet.

[Blue_true]

7. That lead is small for him, given that the returns are likely from blood red counties.

If he was 50,000 ahead, I would worry. But as it is, it seems that the repug is in trouble, he needs to build a big firewall in red counties, he does not seem to be doing that.

8. Oh No!

The sky is falling!!

[brooklynite]

9. With 2% reporting? Not a chance...

Seriously, relax. It’s going to take a while for any substantial returns to come in.

[SaschaHM]

10. The Margin between Trump and Hillary in Marion County in 2016 was over 90k or so for the Dems.

[EffieBlack]

11. Absentee ballots are probably being counted first - and those tend to skew Republican n/t

[Polybius]

12. Polls closed already?

Wow, early.

[voteearlyvoteoften]

13. Yep I'm not watching right now

But obsessively checking DU ...🌊🇺🇸💙👍🏻

[D_Master81]

14. Gary will come in last

And go heavy for Donnelly

[salin]

15. Also Monroe County (Bloomington) - heavy blue - and polls held open

b/c some precincts ran out of ballots - so they held the polls open til 7:00 (like Gary).

Really heavy early voting in Monroe County - by the end of Friday around 77,000 had been counted.

It is going to be tough - but the canary still has a lot of song left in her.

[Jokerman]

17. Still showing 0% reporting for Marion County (Indianapolis) polls.

They should start rolling in soon.

[salin]

21. Fingers crossed!

[beachbum bob]

16. Wait at least 3 hours...urban areas slow to report in Indiana

[Roland99]

18. A LOT of rural areas reporting

[Quixote1818]

23. Where are you seeing that? Their page gives him a 70% chance

[obamanut2012]

24. wrong -- just stop

[Takket]

20. GOP counties don't have many votes to count... so they always report first

[dawg day]

22. I think the "Region" (Gary area) is on Chicago time, so the polls have just closed.

Large traditional Democratic base area-- big union, large African-American population.

The cities usually go Dem big, but report later than the little rural counties.

[salin]

25. apparently polls were still open in TerreHaute - with long lines at 7:15

We could be waiting a while for final results this evening. There is still a long line at the ISU voting location. There are three voting booths at that location. We’re told it could still be two hours before everyone in line is through. @WTHITV

7:12 PM - 6 Nov 2018 from Terre Haute, IN

[INdemo]

26. I dont think the northwest and nothern Democratic stongholds have been counted yet

then there are parts of Marion and Madison and the stronghold of Monroe county so there are thousandof votes to be reported yet and very few Democratic counties have been reeprted

Monroe is about all Democrats...home of IU

[Sylvarose]

27. Monroe county polls open til 7

Monroe County ( heavy dem - home of IU) had voting extension until 7. Ran out of ballots. Wait to see how we vote.
